Ms. Jackson
LaFace, under Sony. He is sorry. The sorry is to her, not to the crowd.
LaFace released it. Sony owns LaFace. The hook is an apology to Ms. Jackson for the mess with her daughter, and for the child who has to live in the mess. That is a more grown sentence than the beat suggests.
If you know the chorus, know who it is for.
